Was just wondering what your guy's takes were on which would be better to get a supercharger or a turbo kit.

unless something has changed - none are "kits" (both are at least in part custom) and none are available in the US.

Unfortunately, no one knows too much about it.

I don't understand spending $20k to be as fast as a car that costs 50k when the car started out at 30k... Call me old fashioned for a 31 year old.. but I like the revs, speed, and sound of this car as is...

You can buy a used Viper for 40k, I think that would be a better investment, than a 30k car + a $9000.00 turbo.

Which one will be worth $19,000 in 3 years, with or without a turbo... my bet is on the Honda
